31 Jul 2025 ZGR Global Pte. Ltd.; Hanshan Money Express Pte. Ltd.CCCS: 5.37 million SGD against two remittance shops for exchanging exchange rates €3.61m
ZGR Global (formerly Zhongguo Remittance) and Hanshan Money Express, two adjacent leading providers of Chinese yuan remittances in People's Park Complex, shared their current and partly non-public remittance rates with each other daily, often several times a day, from at least January 2016 to February 2022, verbally over the counter, on paper slips or by phone. The Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS) found this to infringe s 34 of the Competition Act and on 31 July 2025 imposed penalties totalling 5,365,007 SGD (ZGR Global 2,793,700, Hanshan 2,571,307 SGD). In addition to its cooperation discount, Hanshan received a further 10% discount for its admission under the Fast Track Procedure.
Even routinely sharing current prices with the competitor next door is prohibited coordination; prices must be set independently.

23 May 2025 Trust-Build Engineering & Construction Pte Ltd., Hunan Fengtian Construction Group Co., LtdCCCS: SGD 4.64m in penalties on two construction firms for bid-rigging €3.19m
The Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS, competition and consumer protection authority) found that Hunan Fengtian Construction Group had prepared the tender documents and prices of Trust-Build Engineering & Construction for three 2022 tenders of the People's Association (works at three community clubs, total value around SGD 56 million), so that the two did not bid independently; the People's Association noticed the possible collusion, reported it and excluded both bidders from the evaluation. Under section 34 of the Competition Act 2004, CCCS imposed financial penalties of SGD 4,295,059 on Trust-Build and SGD 349,350 on Hunan Fengtian, totalling SGD 4,644,409.
Preparing a competitor's bid or knowing its prices is bid-rigging – even if neither party ultimately wins the contract.

17 Nov 2022 four Singapore warehouse operatorsCCCS: 2.8 million SGD against four warehouse operators for a coordinated FTZ surcharge €1.97m
In 2017 four warehouse operators at a Singapore logistics park coordinated the introduction of an identically named 'FTZ Surcharge' of 6 SGD per freight unit on import cargo instead of setting their prices independently. On 17 November 2022 the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS) imposed penalties totalling 2,799,138 SGD: operator A 1,436,378, operator B 542,520, operator C 522,889 and operator D 297,351 SGD, the latter after a leniency discount. The Competition Appeal Board allowed the appeal of operators C and A on 16 July 2025; on 30 June 2026 the High Court, on the authority's appeal, reinstated the finding that the two had infringed the law, but the authority has not stated whether their penalties again apply in full.
Even telling competitors that you intend to introduce a surcharge can be prohibited price coordination, including for firms with a small market share.
